LONDON – The British government is urging school leaders to use their “common law powers” to search student lunches and potentially confiscate any items they deem “unhealthy or inappropriate.”

Education minister Lord Nash tells Express, “Schools have common law powers to search pupils, with their consent, for items.

“There is nothing to prevent schools from having a policy of inspecting lunch boxes for food items that are prohibited under their school food policies.

“A member of staff may confiscate, keep or destroy such items found as a result of the search if it is reasonable to do so in the circumstances.”

The whole damn world is going out of their effing minds. That is why I know a World War is in the cards.

Or... watch 2010 A Space Odyssey again...

After all, Art Clark attended all the most popular secret societies... (The ones with the best appetizers)

Easy fix. Find a doctor who will write a prescription for parents to fill out. Teacher better have HIPPA consent form signed before looking into said student’s lunch box.

Be sure to point out to the school bureaucrats that the next conversation will be in your attorney’s office.

The same people who were bombing London 70 years ago in Messerschmidts are now checking lunch bags and running their country.

Try with a mustard dipping sauce.....Better yet: Honey or maple syrup. You forgot to add cinnamon and onion flakes to the sausage.

Just tell the teacher that you are a Muslim and that the local Imam will be seeing them to correct any perceived slights.

There is no mystery why US public schools are failing to educate American students.
